Chapter 320 Demon (1/2)

”Miss Lan, what is that thing? It can even speak!” Yuan was more amazed by this unknown entity's existence than feeling fearful of it.

”You've never heard of a demon before?” Lan Yingying looked at him with surprise.

”A demon? That thing? This is my first time hearing about them, much less seeing one.” Yuan said, and he continued, ”How are they any different compared to magical beasts?”

”They're vastly superior to magical beasts overall. Just like how magical beasts are stronger than human cultivators at the same cultivation level, demons are stronger than magical beasts and by a huge margin as well. A Spirit Apprentice demon can even defeat a Spirit Warrior cultivator with ease.” Lan Yingying explained to him.

”Furthermore, they cannot be killed by normal means and are essentially immortal since they can survive most injuries, even if you put a hole in their heart…”

”What? Such powerful entities exist? How come nobody talks about them outside?” Yuan was speechless.

”I can't tell you since I don't know what it's like outside, but in this world, they are very infamous for their brutality and tremendous strength. However, they are also very rare, and most people live their entire lives without even seeing one.”

”Then I guess we're super lucky to encounter one right now?” Yuan asked.

”Hey, what are you two talking about? I also want to join in on the conversation.” The demon suddenly said to them. However, it remained standing there, seemingly unwilling to approach them for some reason.

”How are you unaffected by the Lord's Sword Aura? You demons shouldn't be able to get this close to the Divine Forest.” Lan Yingying spoke with a frown on her face.

The demon laughed before speaking, ”It's all thanks to your parents. Thanks to their blood, we've gained some resistance to the Sword Aura, but this is the furthest I can go for now. Sooner or later, we'll be able to enter the Divine Forest and consume you and those old bastards.”

Lan Yingying gritted her teeth in anger after hearing the demon mention her parents, and she lifted her arm with her Spirit Master cultivation fully activated.

”Shut up! Sacred Fire!” She shouted.

A ball of white flames appeared in front of her palms before flying at the demon.

However, despite seeing the ball of flames flying at it, the demon didn't even bother to move and remained standing there with a nonchalant look on its face.

The white flames engulfed the demon a moment later, but it didn't show any reactions.

”You've improved, little princess. However, compared to those old bastards, your Sacred Fire is still too weak to do any real harm to our bodies, much less kill us.” The demon spoke as it bathed in her flames casually.

A few moments later, the white flames disappeared on their own, leaving behind minor burn marks on the demon's red skin. However, these injuries immediately healed within seconds as well.

”Miss Lan… you…” Instead of paying attention to the demon, Yuan was fully focused on Lan Yingying at this moment, mostly because her appearance had experienced some changes.

It wasn't anything shocking, but Lan Yingying's black hair had suddenly turned pure white, and her azure-colored eyes turned into a beautiful pink color.
